I need some suggestion regarding TPS re-registration. I am currently on H1B visa and want to renew my TPS. I see that there is a late re-registration for TPS and just wondering if anyone out there can help or have been through the same issue. I want to change my job but current H1 transfer has been very difficult. I was approved for TPS until December 2016 but I didn't re-register within the 60 day window. Anyone has any idea on late re registration of TPS??
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. Thank you!
Same issue. But I have OPT and had question about TPS late re-registration. I filed in January 10 with enough documents and a letter explaining my reason of not re-registering in October 2016 because I had OPT. I am waiting for a reply from USCIS. Will find out what happens.
Hi, i got an Request for evidence letter. Same case just I had opt. Lets see what happens. Considering that we dont even know if tps will ne renewed
@pia sharma: How long did it take for you to receive the letter asking for evidence? TPS may be renewed. I hope it does.
It took around 4 months. I just got my EAD card, since I submitted the ROE really quickly.
I am in the same situation as you! Did not apply for re-registration as my H1b was approved. So now sending the application for late re-registration. So did you apply yet? If yes, any response? How long did it take? Would appreciate your response.
Thanks!
@pia sharma what documents did you submit for the ROL.
The letter explaining why I was late filing TPS
H1B copy
Old approval notices
What did you have to submit?
Did you guys get an update? I am in the same situation and still waiting for EAD for 3 months.
Hi guys, I got my EAD on February. ROE was my initial TPS copy.
@Pia: Thanks for the feedback. One more thing, I filed my application about 3 weeks ago but still have not received even the receipt notice! Anyone remembers how long it took to receive the receipt notice?
Thanks!
@Nepal10 It took me 2 weeks to receive the receipt notice.
Dang it! My application got rejected saying wrong filing me. I sent a money order for $495 as one for EAD and Biometric. Anyone tell me if I have to pay ($85, $410) separately or whatever is the correct amount and way of making the payment so I can resend the application asap. i appreciate the help!
Hey Nepal10. I sent a single personal check of $545.00. Money order works too but no need to make it separate. But please make sure you are sending correct amount.
Good Luck!
I verified total amount to send is $545.
$50(I-821 Fee), $85(Biometric Services) and $410(I-765 Fee).

Hope this helps.
@ChorNepali: Thanks for your reply. I also figured out that was the problem. Appreciate your quick reply and Good luck to you too :)
@Pia and others.
What was your Case status after fingerprint?
Mine still says Fingerprint Fee Was Received for i-821 and Case is Pending at a Local Office (i-765).
My fingerprint was about 2 months ago.
Thanks,
